📄 View Official Agenda
Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming HARMONY PUBLIC SCHOOLS – SOUTH TEXAS agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 7)
Major Charter Expansion Plan Lacks Details
📅 November 14, 2026
The board is voting to ask the state (TEA) for a major expansion, including new campuses, new sites, and more students across six different charter districts. This large-scale growth has significant, long-term financial implications, but the agenda provides no details on the costs, funding sources, or specific locations.
Response

DEMAND A PUBLIC PLAN: Contact the Harmony Public Schools board. ‘Before voting on the massive expansion in Item XI, the board must present a detailed plan to the public. What are the projected costs, how will this be funded, and what is the impact on existing schools?’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Expansion Costs
WARNING (LEVEL 6)
Blank Check for New School Construction
📅 November 14, 2026
The board will vote to award a construction contract for a new gym/storm shelter and authorize the CEO to finalize the agreement without disclosing the cost to the public beforehand. This lack of transparency prevents taxpayers from knowing the price tag of this major project before the board commits the funds.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Harmony Public Schools board before the meeting. ‘Regarding Item X, what is the total cost of the construction bid for the Irving Gym/Storm Shelter, and how is it being funded? The board must state the price tag publicly before voting to approve the contract.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Construction Costs
